"Silly Fathers" lyrics

"Silly Fathers"

Our silly fathers went running in the heathers
Our silly fathers went running in the heathers
And the day is gonna start
And it feels so soon, too soon now, come on
The first light of an ancient wrinkled voice
Is on my eyes, but I never even went to sleep

Hey-oh hey-oh hey-oh-oh-oh

We are serious never mysterious
We're just a chromed-up, lubed-up image of ourselves
Were not safe (We're not safe)
Were not safe (We're not safe)
Were not secure (We're not secure)
Were not secure (We're not secure)

Our silly fathers went running in the heathers
Our silly fathers went running in the heathers
(We're out of time now)
But we're running out of time
We could be that way, yeah we could (Yeah we could)
Then it felt so good to let their hair down
To run around and be free

Hey-oh hey-oh hey-oh-oh-oh

We are serious never mysterious
We're just a chromed-up, lubed-up image of ourselves
Were not safe (We're not safe)
Were not safe (We're not safe)
Were not secure (We're not secure)
Were not secure (We're not secure)

Our silly fathers went running in the heathers
Our silly fathers went running in the heathers
(They did a dance and fell into the heathers)
And they tunneled all around
Felt the beating hearts of the mice then yeah
They made it like a home
But one that disappears
When the sun goes down from shining

We are serious never mysterious
We're just a chromed-up, lubed-up image of ourselves
Were not safe (We're not safe)
Were not safe (We're not safe)
Were not secure (We're not secure)
Were not secure (We're not secure)
Were not safe (We're not safe)
Were not safe (We're not safe)
Were not secure (We're not secure)
Were not ooo-oo-oo-oo-ooo
